Hunter West is exceptional. Elizabeth was wonderfully helpful and informative throughout the process. The communication was very timely, and I genuinely felt that she was very interested in making sure both I and the company were going to be a good fit. I really appreciated the extra, more personal insight into the organization I was applying to, especially relating to the culture of the firm, company benefits, and so on. I found it really helpful to have a recruiter liaising directly with the company. I think it can be the difference between getting an interview or having your resume tossed aside. I have worked with other recruitment agencies before, but Hunter West (and Elizabeth specifically) has been my best experience so far. Hunter West will be the first place I contact if I ever need recruitment services in the future.
I loved my experience working with Hunter West! Elizabeth was very friendly and energetic. She always kept me updated on job postings that she thought would be a good match for me, and I found it helpful that she was actively updating me on available job postings, rather than me simply searching the Hunter West website. Elizabeth brought a friendly personality and a desire to help me and see me succeed. I worked with another agency in the past, but Hunter West is so much more knowledgeable and really goes the extra mile. They ensure that you are up to date on job postings, and also communicate with potential employers to ensure everything is satisfactory. If I were to want to change law firms, I would definitely use Hunter West again.
Hunter West is in a category of its own. Elizabeth was able to interpret my feelings and expressions way better than I can describe in words. She knew how to say what I was feeling, she was patient in hearing what I needed, and she explained scenarios that helped me make my decisions. I would definitely work with Hunter West again, and I would recommend anyone who is searching for new job opportunities in the legal field to work with Elizabeth before deciding on their own.
